A low shove of air across the water, then the sound arriving late and rolling right through your chest. There is nowhere else in the country where the tide chart and the launch schedule matter about equally.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCape Canaveral juts into the Atlantic on Florida's Space Coast, sheltering the Banana River and the Indian River Lagoon behind it. It has been the departure point for American spaceflight since the 1950s, and Port Canaveral below it is one of the busiest cruise harbors in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Cape Canaveral Tide \u0026amp; Time Clock begins the same way every one of our charts does, with a bathymetric survey laser-cut into high-quality Baltic Birch. The water is hand-stained a beautiful greyish-blue against the natural birch of the land, and the roads, landmarks and depth contours are etched into the surface. Sixteen and a half inches across, it tracks the hour and the tide on one face.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is a tide clock and how does it work?\u003c\/strong\u003e Fun facts: the lunar day is 24 hours and 50 minutes long, and the moon is the biggest influence on the tides. Since there are two high tides each lunar day, our tide clocks rotate every 12 hours and 25 minutes. Quartz tide clocks are perfect for the more predictable tides of the Eastern United States. You can set yours with a quick search for the next high tide in your area, or reset it monthly at the full or new moon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Cape, its lagoons and its tides, together on one face.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCape Canaveral Tide \u0026amp; Time Clock, 16.50\" Diameter Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade of high-quality birch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16.50” diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCombined tide and time clock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLaser-etched contours and landmarks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePowered by a single AA battery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReady to hang\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePlease note: the tides on the US West Coast and Gulf of Mexico are less predictable and a quartz tide clock is not recommended for those regions.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoodChart","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48290041987209,"sku":"TDTM-GREY-CVRL","price":75.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/9160\/3081\/files\/PHOTOSCOMINGSOON_77f75cd9-abaa-4899-a78e-4e2002720c63.jpg?v=1788747511","url":"https:\/\/woodchart.com\/products\/cape-canaveral-tide-time-clock-16-50-diameter","provider":"Woodchart.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
